Get ready for a strategic blizzard! Isaac Childres, the mastermind behind the million-selling board game sensation Gloomhaven and its even more massive sequel Frosthaven, is teaming up with a studio led by the creator of the legendary X-COM video game series to develop a tactical RPG adaptation of Frosthaven.
The Frosthaven board game, which itself was a phenomenal success on Kickstarter, raising over $12.9 million, is now set to conquer the digital realm. Players will lead a band of mercenaries through the frozen north, facing challenging scenarios and making tough strategic choices, much like the beloved X-COM series.
While the name of the studio helmed by the X-COM creator remains under wraps, the collaboration promises a deep and engaging tactical experience. Fans eager to brave the digital frost won’t have to wait too long, as a beta for the Frosthaven tactical RPG is expected to begin “soon.”
This adaptation highlights the continued crossover appeal of tabletop gaming in the video game world. With the immense popularity and intricate gameplay of Frosthaven, this digital version is poised to be a major hit for fans of both strategy RPGs and the Gloomhaven universe.
